I managed to creep up on this Sparrowhawk in the garden and get a few shots. It was busy watching the birds on the feeders, although it did look round at me a couple of times, it didn't take flight. I read that they only respond to movement and maybe my stealth like way of freezing every time it looked in my direction paid off.

Superb captures.

Very nice Steve. Are these handheld? I take it you did not creep up with a tripod, they are as sharp as ever.
what a great bird, and what fantastic photos too.

Thanks for the comments. Yes, they were taken handheld Mike. Unless I am working from a hide, most of my images are taken handheld.
Cheers, Steve
